Laphroaig Càirdeas Origin - Fèis Ìle 2012 70cl Whisky
Laphroaig Càirdeas Origin - Fèis Ìle 2012
Cairdeas means friendship in Gaelic, a fitting moniker for a bottling released to celebrate the distillery's popular friends programme. It's really rather good.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Buttery and soft, with just a wisp of smoked kippers. There's only the slightest hint of the carbolic notes you find in the ten year old expression. It's a heavy butterscotch sweetness that runs the show, with a hefty portion of salted caramel.
Palate
Rounded and smooth, the butter spreads itself, melts and reveals Laproaig's signature smoky heart. It's pungent but not overpowering, a cushion of smoke rather than an enveloping cloud. But this is a big mouth-filling whisky; it just does it with finesse. That sweetness from the nose is heavily pronounced, and tastes remarkably like the crumbly fudge you find all over Islay.
Finish
Sweet, long and comforting.
Overall
A well-named and delicious whisky. I want to spend more time with it.
